Some interesting tidbits from this talk: Guru describing his heretofore unsuccessful attempts to get Jay-Z to rhyme over Dilla beats; his critical analysis of MF Doom’s Mm… Food (and his confirmation that he’s played parts of it for ‘Hov) and his entertaining recollections of recording Cam’Ron’s “Oh Boy” and mastering (with much interruption) Jay’s Blueprint 3.
